1984 SE Racing Quadangle

This was a gift from my sister for my 15th birthday (a long time ago). Almost everything on the bike is original except for the headset, grips, cranks, pedals, and sprocket, which I changed out for a cleaner look. I repainted it in 1999, and just recently decided to build it up again so that my children could appreciate the fine quality of bikes built when I was a child. My 2 1/2 year old daughter seems to like it the most though, since she's always saying "That's Awesome" whenever she sees it.

Thanks. The frame was white originally and it looked sweet, but because I rode it so much BITD I scraped a lot of the paint off. I had always liked the blue SE used on their bikes, and when I decided to restore it, I went with the color.
